Metal dash and console set up.....

Does anyone know if anyone makes this? I think like an aluminum dash and center console to replace all the plastic crap would be cool as hell! Does anyone know of any other kinds of dash and console aftermarket setups there are? Like carbon fiber and wood paneling or ALUMINUM?! Let me know and post pics if you have them!

Email me and I will tell you a simple way to get them into Carbon Fiber.

PS I am eventually get the entire dash pad remade in fiberglass then wrapped in C/F. Then the A Pillars and a few other "choice" focal points. Though I would really like to do the center console in aluminum. I know how to make it, just not the time.

I made an overlay to take the place of the plastic pieces in my Camaro for the dash and the console out of aluminum. It looks good polished, but doing it was a major PITA
